I think the current system of using labels is better over placeholder as - -> Labels display additional information about which fields are mandatory and which are not, by displaying a red asterisk. -> Placeholders can not be used for fields involving radio buttons, check boxes etc. Hence, labels will be mandatory for them. Therefore, using placeholder for half the form and labels for half the form isnt s a good idea, and sticking to the current scheme will ensure consistency throughout the form.
